Every project needs someone running it.

Every business runs projects, and every project needs someone tracking scope, budget, timelines and the people involved. This skill set gives you the four units employers look for when they hire that person, with no prior project experience needed.

Project skills travel. Technology, engineering, government, healthcare, mining and energy, logistics, marketing and professional services all hire project staff, and all four units credit straight into the BSB50820 Diploma of Project Management when you want to go further.

4 units. Your pace.

4 nationally recognised units taken straight from the BSB50820 Diploma of Project Management, all online, all on your phone or laptop. You get up to 4 months, and most students wrap it up well before that by knocking over a unit at a time.

How much time?

2 focused hours a week builds strong momentum.

Fit it around shifts, uni or a full-time job, or knock over a unit in one solid weekend session. Consistency beats intensity, and our local team is with you the whole way.

Curriculum

Built around real project work.

Project resourcing, stakeholder engagement, team effectiveness and your own professional development. Every unit maps to something a project coordinator is asked to do in week one.

  • Manage project human resources BSBPMG534
  • Manage personal and professional development BSBPEF501
  • Manage team effectiveness BSBTWK502

Common questions.

Because they cannot afford three senior managers and they are drowning in delivery work. Coordinators exist to protect a PM's time: keeping the register current, chasing actions, preparing the reporting pack, keeping the schedule honest.

The four units from BSB50820 signal you already know the vocabulary and the artefacts. That is the entire hiring bar for the first role.

Ready when you are.

Enrol online in a couple of minutes, or send us a question first and get a straight answer from a real person the same day.
